He has been ready an willing to answer any questions. He has a very good reputation. WHC is a Center of Excellence. I think you're in good hands.

Update: I was sleeved by Dr. Brebbia on Sept. 26th (Friday morning). By Sunday morning I wondered if I had had surgery at all! When I read the surgery report they sent right after surgery, I discovered that he removed the gas used during the surgery, so I had no post-op gas pains at all. He is fantastic!

This is great! My doc is Finelli at Montgomery Med in Olney, but Brebbia will be there assisting! This makes me feel much better!

I would ask ahead of time if they are going to remove the gas before ending the surgery. I also suggest requesting that you receive the pain meds in your IV rather than trying to get large pills down. That's hard right after surgery. Best wishes!
